What brought you to the forum this week?

Hot take incoming: difficulty grinding up is just the market telling you to find cheaper power.

Second this. second-hand Bitaxe prices near me make repair skills worth more than new hardware. Curious what the group thinks.

Reading this from {place}, I killed a hashboard learning hotair rework and consider it tuition.

Genuine question first: the real cost is never the rig, it's the 942W nobody budgets for. Convince me otherwise.

The best mining alpha left is patience plus a boring power contract. Anyone measuring something different?

Interesting point above. solo mining KAS is a lottery where you keep the ticket price as expected value. I still buy the ticket. Am I missing something obvious?

Hot take incoming: XMR on the small rigs, XMR on the big ones — diversification of boredom. What's your setup?

Not sure I buy that. I treat mining income as a slow DCA and the mood swings stopped. Would you do it differently?

Reading this from {place}, multisig with a written recovery plan beats any single clever hiding spot. Anyone tried the opposite?
